No. 24 – Philadelphia 76ers:
Zachary Padmore – Cameron Johnson. (North Carolina)
“Every team in the NBA would love to add an extra shooter to their roster, which is why Cameron Johnson will be a legit target for many playoff teams picking late in the first round.
Johnson may be the best shooter in this draft. That’s not the only thing that he can do, but it’s one thing that will absolutely transfer to the next level. I could see him being a rotation player right out of the gate.
The Sixers could use some more depth on their bench, so Johnson would be a good pick for them late in the first round, kind of like how Landry Shamet (now with the Clippers) was last year.
Giovanni Spillman – Chuma Okeke. (Auburn)
“The 76ers currently have a great starting lineup, with very few great players coming off of their bench. It would serve the 76ers well if they go after a player like Chuma Okeke.
Okeke is a physical and defensive minded forward who averaged 12 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.2 blocks per game for Auburn this season. He is a huge reason why Auburn is currently in the Final Four.
If the 76ers are unable to retain Butler, I think Okeke could be a great pickup for this team. He has the potential to fit in nicely with players like Simmons and Embiid.”
